UserPatch 1.5 Public Beta on Voobly

we're proud to announce the launch of UserPatch 1.5 Public Beta on Voobly! As the name suggests, it's still in beta and there might be issues with it in both single- and multiplayer use. The reason the Voobly Team decided to make it public already is that a) you can help us test & release it quicker by providing bug reports and Voobly error logs and b) we're actually super excited about UserPatch 1.5 and can't wait to see it used on Voobly. The cooperation with the [You must login to view link] has been fun and very productive so far, so we're hopeful to see UserPatch 1.5 as the default patch version on Voobly in the next few weeks.

If you can't wait for it either, you can help us to speed up this process by downloading UserPatch 1.5 Public Beta, testing it and provide us with any bugs you notice with it. So, let's make this a true community effort, so everyone can enjoy the improvements of UP 1.5 on Voobly as soon as possible.

Note: Several optional features are currently locked as on or off.
When the game client is updated soon, you'll be able to configure these options from the game room, such as shift group appending and precision scrolling.

For any HD folk wondering, the hotkey problem of keyup/down registration having such a different feel, is resolved in this beta, since the Optinal Feature "keydown object hotkeys" seems to be on by default. So I recommend to give it a try.

Kinda sad to see a community team who doesn't have access to the source code of the game can make a really good and free patch with more QoL changes and features, than people who actually have access to the source code of the game (HD Edition).

Where can we reports the issues? For the time being I will post it here.
I used the UP 1.5 beta 2 build 5425 to play a game in single players mode, after that I have noticed that I do not connect to people easily in game room and I have to restart the lobby to establish connection and every time I close the lobby to restart it voobly crashes.
There are no issues with my internet I have been using the same for last 3 years and never faced issues. So i guess it must be due to the changes the new UP made.

More important the UserPatch 1.5 is when somebody gonna add the African Kingdoom civis into the Aoc?

If you own the steam DLCs, you can use this converter to be able to play them on Voobly: [You must login to view link]
Note that you should play it on Userpatch 1.5, and that both the UP and the converter are still in beta, so there may still be bugs.
